The Quiet Warrior Podcast with Serena Low

23. How to know if you're an empath

Serena Low, Introvert Coach

An introvert, an empath, and a highly sensitive person walk into a roomful of strangers.


How would each react to:

  • Making small talk with new people?

  • The level of background noise, the lighting, the layout, the aesthetics?

  • The conversations taking place simultaneously across different groups?

This week, we explore:

  • The traits of an empath and how to know if you’re most likely one

  • The intersection between empath, highly sensitive person, and introvert (can you be all three?)

  • The gifts and strengths of being an empath

  • The downsides of being an empath

  • Self-care tips to navigate chaotic and overstimulating environments as an empath
